Jose Mari Chan and The CompanY celebrate Christmas in concert

Leave a comment

Whenever people hear the iconic songs of Jose Mari Chan on loop, it only means one thing — the wonderful holiday season has begun. Newport World Resorts welcomes this one epic season of joy, thrills, and non-stop merry-making with the Christmas crooner himself. As the premier entertainment destination opened The World of Christmas holiday celebrations, Chan begins the merry countdown to Christmas in the “Going Home to Christmas” concert on December 9 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater. Joining him in perfect harmony is the Philippines’ premier vocal group The CompanY.

Following a joyful Christmas concert last year, the veteran singer-composer returns to the NPAT stage to fill the air with his classic tunes. Chan has become synonymous with Christmas, having “Christmas in our Hearts” as the anthem of Filipino Yuletide celebrations and the biggest Christmas OPM album in history. The holiday celebrations would not be complete without his beautiful taking over the radio, playing in malls, and ringing throughout the nation.

Similarly to Chan, The CompanY also sprinkles merriment through their music. The acapella pop group from the ‘80s popularized songs such as “Everlasting Love,” “Muntik Na Kitang Minahal,” and “Now That I Have You.” The group is currently composed of Annie Quintos, Moy Ortiz, OJ Mariano, and Sweet Plantado.

Newport World Resorts reignites ‘popera’ devotion with Il Divo

Leave a comment

It is quite apt that the name of operatic pop superstars Il Divo translates to “divine performer,” because it describes exactly what they are. This November, French pop singer Sebastien Izambard, American tenor David Miller, and Swiss tenor Urs Bühler return to Newport World Resorts with even more passion, fire, and rhythm in their two-night concert A New Day Tour. With a perfect fusion of opera and modern performance, the world’s leading classical crossover group, together with special guest vocalist Steven LaBrie, will light up the stage at the Newport Performing Arts Theater (NPAT) on November 24 and 25, 8 PM.

Their comeback to the award-winning NPAT stage has been a long time coming. The trio first took the stage to serenade the crowd with their rendition of Broadway classics at their 10th anniversary concert in 2014.

Il Divo stands as a pioneer of the “popera” genre, or operatic pop, in which classical and pop music come together. The suave chart-toppers took the world by storm with hits including “Time to Say Goodbye,” “Amazing Grace,” and “Unchained Melody.” Their music seamlessly transitions between languages, including English, Spanish, and Italian, which successfully mesmerized listeners worldwide.

Be enchanted by Il Divo’s signature operatic pop harmonies at the Newport Performing Arts Theater. Tickets are now available at all TicketWorld and SM Tickets outlets: P18,500 (PLATINUM), P17,000 (SVIP), P14,500 (VIP), P10,500 (GOLD), P7,000 (SILVER), and P3,500 (BRONZE).

David Pomeranz coming back to Manila for his 40th Anniversary concert

Leave a comment

If there’s one musical performer who’s without a doubt widely known and loved in the Philippines, that would be DAVID POMERANZ. David’s songs were already popular back in the 80’s with hit songs like, GOT TO BELIEVE IN MAGIC, KING AND QUEEN OF HEARTS, OLD SONGS, IF YOU WALKED AWAY and TRYING TO GET THAT FEELING AGAIN. The
popularity of these songs kept David Pomeranz in the conscious psyche of Filipino audiences all over the world and these songs eventually paved the way for David’s impending further success when, in 1999, his Multi-Platinum Award-winning, “BORN FOR YOU” album was released and
became the largest selling International Pop album in the history of The Philippines.

Numerous concert performances and TV appearances then followed and, in 2001, his “ON THIS DAY” album was released with the hit title track becoming an iconic wedding standard. And the rest, as they say, is history. Not a day goes by that a David Pomeranz song isn’t played on Philippine radio and it’s a testament to his enduring musical legacy that will stay with generations of Filipinos for as long as his music is played on Radio, Television, the Internet, Karaoke bars and everywhere else in the Philippines and around the world.

This December 8, 2023, 8PM, at the Newport Performing Arts Theater, come celebrate with David at his 40th Anniversary “Coming Home” ConcertTour with his Special Guest, Vina Morales and Front Acts, Elisha and Andrea Gutierrez.

APO Hiking Society celebrates golden anniversary at Newport World Resorts

Leave a comment

Trends come and go, but the classic hits of APO Hiking Society live on. Their chart-topping melodies are still hot-wired into the soul of Filipinos from the ‘70s all the way to the new century. The legendary Filipino band’s members Jim Paredes and Boboy Garovillo celebrate their 50 solid gold years of friendship and music in the “APO Hiking Society 50th Anniversary Concert” at the Newport Performing Arts Theater on November 17.

The anniversary show is a sentimental trip down memory lane that spans five decades. The group’s legacy is one that transcends generations, bringing joy to couples growing old together to the tune of “Panalangin”. Another one of their classic tracks “Awit ng Barkada” has become the soundtrack of solid friendships that went through thick and thin. Many also grew up on the wisdom of “Batang Bata Ka Pa,” a reminder to hold on to youthful spirit. APO’s music has been the backdrop of life’s defining moments.

APO’s legacy has since been ingrained in the landscape of Original Pilipino Music or “OPM,” a term coined by the late Danny Javier himself, one of the band’s original members. To their name, they released over 200 tracks and 27 albums in a span of half a century, with two successful tribute albums produced in 2006 and 2007 featuring numerous young bands. A testament to the band’s enduring love and dedication for Filipino music.
